To the editor:

That election process is all right the way it is. The party system is great. The only thing that needs to be changed is simple. We need to get rid of the computerized/electronic voting system and go back to 100 percent all paper ballots! And hand count them three times over by four different people, one of which will be of your district. And use the punch hole system we use to have. And the only thing I would add is that we should have to put our initials next to every hole we punch on the ballot, just to assure that they have not been tampered with. No copy will be used other than for assuring the same ballot number has the same punch holes in the original ballot, if a recount is demanded.

It is a lot of extra work, but it is a lot more secure then the computerized system that can be messed with in many different ways. Which has been proven. Not that our representatives or presidents would even do any underhanded activities like that.
